Aoife has been very private about her fiancé’s identity until now respecting his wish to stay out of the public eye but the couple seems to have eased up on that posing with their famous friends at the party.

Previously she has cropped him out of photos or makes sure that it’s only the back of his head that’s seen and his face is covered.

However Gary smiled for the photos at their friends’ engagement party over the weekend.

Aoife herself posted a stunning picture of herself from the get together in a sweet floral summer dress which she paired with Hermès sandals. Interestingly, Ben’s wife Jackie also opted for the same popular summer shoe to complete her casual look.

She announced that sadly it would be the last weekend she would spend in The Hamptons this year as the season comes to an end. The area forms part of the East End of Long Island, New York, where Aoife splits her time between the city and her home in Ireland.

Her fans have become used to seeing her enviable snaps from the exclusive seaside resort over the summer.

Ben who seems to be loving life in Stateside, posted on Instagram back in August to announce his marriage to Jackie and thanked ex-wife Una Healy for her blessing.

The couple had only been together two weeks saying: ‘This last year has been by far my toughest and most turbulent for a number of reasons that many of you I’m sure are aware of, in some way or another.’

‘But I met a girl who seriously swept me off my feet and in a time of hardship showed me love, a deep devoted love.’

‘People will say we are mad or crazy or even fools, as @snackyjax and I had only been dating seriously for a little over 2 weeks before deciding to get married.’
